Sorry, but can't provide a chart this time. Since I upgraded to Windows7 a day ago, I find that my printer/scanner is no longer compatible. The device probably dates from Win98 days, and I was lucky it was compatible with Win Vista. It's now finally run out of legs.

I expect the northern hemisphere guys will shortly come up with good photometry, but these mags will tide you over till then. Must be a heavily obscured region.

From: "Mati Morel" <mmorei7@bigpondcom> Date: Sunday, 5 June 2011 6:46 PM To: <[email protected]> Subject: [VSS-members] Sequence for SN 201 ldi in IC 4754 According to CBET, Berto Monard has discovered a supernova in the southern galaxy IC 4754. It was mag 14.5 on May 25.8 UT. Position (J2000) 18 43 59.1 -61 59 46 Designation: PSN J18435900-6159460 = SN 2011di An image can be found here: http://wwwJ1ickr.eom/photos/43846774@NQ2/574879685Q/

Five stars on that photo have been numbered. I've looked up their B and V mags in the SPM4 catalogue, which after a bit of checking appear to be OK, at the +/-Q.1 level. Their mags are given below. Star RA2000 DEC2000 V B

1. 184353.12-61 58 2. 18 43 55.06-61 58 3. 18 44 09.68-61 59 4. 18 44 08.91 -61 57 5. 184351.16-61 57

46.3 15.38 16.27 SPM4 51.3 16.67 17.77 IE

13.6 16.89 16.97 IE

54.6 14.72 15.09 II

24.8 14.73 15.79 1!

These numbered stars are a bit faint, so here are a coupJe of brighter stars, from ASAS-3 140 18 44 25.90-61 58 26.6 13.964 (0.186) ASAS-3. SPM4 gives V =14.02, B =14.45 All CCD 141 18 43 23.53-61 57 32.2 14.131 (0.204) ASAS-3. SPM4 gives V =14.05 B =14.83 Alt CCD

These should be OK for visual use, at the least.

Star numbers 1 to 5 are according J. Brimacombe's chart. By comparison with ASAS-3 there is negligible difference between ASAS-3 and SPM4 (for visual observers!) down to 12.9. From 13.0 downward there is noticeable divergence, of at least O.lmag, SPM4 being too bright. 151 and 157 may be too bright by 0.2mag. B-V is based on B mags from SPM4, which are probably photographic. V mags are all CCD based. From experience, B-V from SPM4 data can be a bit wobbly; appear to be OK in this instance (touch wood!).

Berto Monard has discovered a supernova in the large galaxy NGC 4945 in the NGC 5128 group. Announced on CBET 2946, the position is given as: 13 05 11.1 -49 31 27 (J20Q0), 152" west and 200" south of the poorly-defined galaxy center. The galaxy is big enough that this large offset is still in the outer arms of the galaxy. On Dec 20.75 the magnitude is given as 123. Two follow-up spectra have been reported, indicating it is a type II event Hp event a week or so past maximum. These progress fairly slowly, so the object should be visible for some weeks yet (for pre-dawn observers!).

NOVA CENTAURI 2012 = PNV J13410800-5815470 John Seach, Chatsworth Island, NSW, Australia, reports his discovery of

a possible new nova (mag 9.2) on six images (limiting mag 11.0) taken on Mar. 23,386 UT with a digital SLR camera (+ 50-mrn f/1.0 lens); he reported that the new object is located at R A = 13h41m08s, Deck = -58dl5'47" (equinox 2000.0), adding that nothing is visibfe at this position on a red Palomar Sky Survey image. The variable was designated PNV J13410800-5815470 when Seach posted it at the Central Bureaus TOCP webpage

Paul Camillert measured position end figures 09s.34,17".5 and mag 8.4 for PNV J13410800-5815470 from a 30-s unfiltered CCD image taken on Mar. 24.470 with a 0.35-m f/6 reflector at the Grove Creek Observatory at Trunkey Creek, NSW — adding that the closest star to this position on U.K. Schmidt telescope plates (of infrared mag 17.2 on 1978 Apr 17,6 and of red mag 17.0 on 1994 Mar. 10.7) has position end figures 09s.06,15".4.

Ernesto Guido, Alison Tripp, Nick Howes, and Giovanni Sostero obtained images of PNV J13410800-5815470 remotely via the 2.0-m f/10 Ritchey-Chretien "Faulkes Telescope South" on Mar. 24.5, yielding Bessel-R magnitude 9.3 and position end figures 09s.36, 16".9 (USNO-B10 catalogue reference stars); an animation showing a comparison between their confirmation image and a 1994 red Digitized Sky Survey image is posted at URL http://bit.iy/GNmPAT; their image alone is posted at http://bit.lv/GVeafc.

Additional magnitudes for PNV J13410800-5815470, reported in part by Elizabeth Waagen, AAVSO (visual unless noted otherwise): Mar. 16.396, [11.0 (Seach, as above); 23.434, 9.2 (Seach, as above); 24.427, 9.6 (M. Linnolt, Ocean View, HI, U.S.A.); 24938, 9.6 (B. Fraser, Henley-on-Klip, South Africa); 25.172, 9.4-10.0 (A. Amorim, Florianopolis, Brazil; visual; range is based on using red comparison stars with B-V > +0.9 vs. blue comparison stars with B-V < +0.5 for the bright vs. faint values, respectively); 25408, 97 (R. Stubbings, Tetoora Road, Vic, Australia); 26174,9.7 (E. Fox, Santa Maria, Brazil); 26,181, 9.9 (fox); 26.840,10.0 (Fraser); 27.597,10.5 (A. Pearce, Nedlands, Western Australia). Waagen adds that many CCD V magnitudes have been reported to the AAVSO by J. Hambsch (Mol, Belgium) for the interval Mar. 24.099-27.274 UT; nightly approximate magnitudes were Mar. 24.1-24.2, 9.4; Mar. 25.1-25.2, 9.5; Mar. 261-26.3, 9.7; Mar. 27.1-27.3,10.0.

F. M. Walter, Stony Brook University, obtained a low-resolution (0.31-nm) red (560-690 nm) spectrogram of PNV J13410800-5815470 on Mar. 27.3 UT using the SMARTS 1.5-m telescope (+ RC spectrograph) at Cerro Tololo. The variable is a classical "Fe Il"-type nova. Emission lines are seen from Fe II multiple! 74 at 614.9, 623.9, and 645.6 nm. The H-alpha line has an equivalent width of -19.0 nm, with a FWHM of 2.5 nm. There is a P-Cyg absorption feature at about -1600 km/s, and a notch in the blue wing of the emission fine at about -800 km/s. There is broad emission with P-Cyg absorption in the vicinity of Na D lines. If the absorption is due to Na D in the ejecta, this suggests outflow velocities between -700 and -2300 km/s. The interstellar Na D lines are narrow, with equivalent widths of about 0 1 nm. Also, BVRIJHK photometry was obtained with the SMARTS 1.3-m telescope (+ Andicam dual channel photometer) at Cerro Tololo on Mar. 24.16,26.14, and 27.11; the V magnitude decreased from 9.4 to 9.9 over this interval.

VSM 218. Probable symbiotic star. Mat! Morel 3

Page 1 of 1

From: "Brian Skiff' <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, 15 May 2012 7:52 AM To: "arne" <arne@aavso,org> Cc: "AAVSO Discussion group" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [AAVSO-DIS] PNV J18110375-2717276

The fact that this star is present on the P0SS-I red plate from the 1950s, and subsequent data sources since then (it is an IRAS, MSX, AKARI, and WISE source, for instance) means this simply cannot be an ordinary nova. The recent spectrum looks like a symbiotic star in outburst. This does not make the event less interesting! There are fewer known symbiotic stars than galactic novae.

various aliases:

2MASS J18110370-2717294 18 11 03.70 -27 17 29.4 (J2000) GSC-2.3 S9TN078861 DENIS J181103.7-271730 IRAS 18079-2718 12mu flux = 0.68 Jy MSX6C G004.2275-Q4.0406 A-band flux = 0.62 Jy AKARI J1811037-271728 WISE J181103.69-271729.3 18 11 03,70 -27 17 29.4

The 2MASS and WISE coordinates are identical within the round-off errors, so either of those are the preferred coordinates for the star, if only because neither will be affected by crowding problems, as will be the case in the visible. These positions were obtained ten years apart.

The IRAS 12-micron and MSX A' passbands are nearly the same, which is why the fluxes are similar within errors (the data were taken - 1 5 years apart). The thing is blazing bright in the WISE data (partly saturated in the two shorter wavelengths), which mainly means it is both cool and dusty. The WISE lW3' passband should have simitar flux if converted to linear units. All this mainly tells you the thing has been there a long time, whereas an ordinary nova would not have been present in any of these surveys irrespective of wavelength.

NOVA SC0RPI1 2012 R. M. Wagner, Ohio State University (OSU) and Large Binocular Telescope

Observatory; S. Dong, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton; T. Bensby, Lund Observatory; J. Prieto, Princeton University; I. Bond, Massey University; P. Tristram, Mt. John University Observatory; D. Bennett, University of Notre Dame; K. Wada and T. Sumi, Osaka University, and the Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics (MOA) collaboration; A. Gould, OSU, and the Microlensing Follow-Up Network (microFUN) collaboration; and S, Starrfield, Arizona State University, report the discovery and initial photometry and spectroscopy of a bright transient in the direction of the Galactic bulge. The MOA collaboration detected a candidate microlensing event, designated MOA 2012 BLG-320, on 2012 May 22.80 UT at magnitude I = 18.5, located at R A = 17h50m53s.90, Ded. = -32d37'20".5 (equinox 2000.0). No significant source appears at this position on either the R or N survey plates of the Digitized Sky Survey.

MOA photometry of the source before the outburst shows that the progenitor was at 1 magnitude about 19.0-19.5, but with substantial variability on nightly time scales. Between May 14 and 16 UT, the source began a slow monotonic increase in brightness, and after May 24 UT, the rate increased significantly. The light curve obtained between May 28 and 31 UT exhibits periodic modulations with an amplitude of about 0.1 mag and a period of about 1.6 hr superposed on the brightening source. Between June 1.77 and 2.55 UT, the transient brightened dramatically from I magnitude about 17, reaching I magnitude about 11 on June 3.33 UT - - prompting more detailed follow-up by both MOA and the microFun collaborations.

On June 4.08 UT, a high-resolution optical spectrum {range 375-950 nm; resolution R = 42000) of the transient was obtained with the Very Large Telescope (+ UVES). The spectrum exhibits strong emission lines with striking P-Cyg profiles of the Balmer series of hydrogen and many muitiplets of Fe II, as well as O I 777.4- and 844.6-nm. The equivalent widths of both H-beta emission and absorption are 1.7 and 0.3 nm, respectively. The interstellar Na D lines are resolved and exhibit considerable structure at this spectral resolution. The total equivalent widths of the D l and D2 lines are 0.16 and 0.19 nm, respectively. The spectrum is reminiscent of either a slow , rFe U-type" classical nova or an intermediate-luminosity red transient like V838 Moa However, the measured H-beta and H-alpha FWHM of about 800 km/s (average expansion velocity of about 400 km/s) are more consistent with slow classical novae that have t_2 around 50-200 days and are thermonuclear events on accreting white dwarfs. Other historical slow novae include V450 Cyg and HR Del, which were observed to have comparable expansion velocities and t_2 of 90 and 150 days, respectively.

The most recent photometry of this new nova obtained on June 7.29, from images obtained with the Cerro Tololo 1.3-m telescope (+ ANDICAM) are magnitudes V = 11.6 and I = 9.4. The transient continues to brighten at a rate of about 0.4 mag/day in the I band over the past three nights.

Posn (J2000): 03 33 35.99 -36 07 37.77 Magn; 15.6R Discovered by A, Klotz on behalf of the TAROT collaboration. Date: 2012 10 27.05 UT

The attached chart provides a sequence from the APASS database. I have added star '136' which is from a list of superimposed stars by Brian Skiff. It may not be in APASS (I'm not sure), but be careful with identifying the SN. The SN is apparently on the rise; could reach 12th mag. Regards, Mati Morel Variable Stars South [email protected]

A T E L #4540 Title: Nova in the L M C Author: L . Wyrzykowski, K. Ulaczyk, A. Udalski, S. Kozlowski (Warsaw University Astronomical Observatory, Poland), on behalf of the O G L E team. Queries: iwffiastrouvv.edu.pl Posted: 4 Nov 2012; 19:23 U T Subjects: Optical, Nova, Transient

We report the detection of a likely nova outburst - OGLE-2012-NOVA-003, found toward the Large Magellanic Cloud ( L M C ) in the course of the O G L E - I V search for transients (Wyrzykowski et al. A T E L #4495), carried out with the Warsaw 1.3-m Telescope at the Las Campanas Observatory, Chile. The nova is located at Ra,Dec (J2000,0) - 5:20:21,09 -73:05:43.3. There is no detection of a progenitor on the reference image, so it must have been fainter than I>22 mag. The nova was discovered during a semi-automated search for transients on 2012-11-04.358 U T (HJD = 2456235.85867) at magnitude 13.9 in the I-band. Given the available O G L E data we can constrain the time of the explosion to between 2012-10-22.374 ( H J D - 2456222.87366, last frame without the nova) and 2012-10-25.310 (HJD= 2456225.80963, first frame with the nova). On the first frame the object is saturated with a magnitude between 1 land 12 mag in the I-band.

The data collected so far by the O G L E survey in the I-band are listed below: 2456230.75237 12.929 0.001 2456232.85822 13.338 0.001 2456235.85867 13.928 0.001

The data indicate a fast decline rate with t2—10d and t3-~15d. Photometric and spectroscopic follow-up is strongly encouraged. Finding chart and light curve are available on the O G L E Transients Search pages.: littp://og1e.astrouw•edu.pl/ogle4/transicnts/transients.htm1

A chart and APASS sequence is attached, to enable observations.

VSM 232. Poss. Nova in LMC.

Mati Morel

From: "Mati Morel" <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, 22 October 2013 10:52 AM To: "Nick Brown" <[email protected]>; <[email protected]>;

VSM 232. Possible Nova in LMC.

The following report comes from the 06LE- IV team. A possible nova in the LMC, but note that the only published magnitude is in the I-band, so it may well be a few magnitudes fainter in the V-band. This may appear a bit academic, but a sequence is issued, just in case. The classification is also very preliminary.

ATEL #5491.

The O G L E - I V Transient Search (Wyrzykowski et al. A T E L #4495, Kozlowski et al. 2013) reports the detection of a new star in the Large Magellanic Cloud, likely a classical nova eruption. We measured the maximum brightness at about 13.2 mag in the I-band and the decline rate of about t2~20 days

The explosion must have happened between JD= 2456573.81738 {Oct 8th) and 2456581.83627 (Oct 16th), given the non-detection on the former frame. No progenitor is visible on the template image with the limiting magnitude of about 22 mag.

The coordinates of the OGLE-2013-NOVA -02 are Ra,Dec(J2000.0)= 05:57:58.385 -74:54:09.43

Photometric and spectroscopic follow-up is strongly encouraged.
